Product Features
DYP-A16 ultrasonic sensor integrates advanced technologies to deliver exceptional distance measurement performance. Featuring a reflective structure, it ensures a long detection range with a narrow beam angle, while the smart signal processing circuit minimizes the blind zone. Its built-in high-accuracy ranging algorithm achieves a minimum error of <5mm, and the controllable measuring angle enhances sensitivity and anti-interference capability. A true target recognition algorithm further boosts accuracy in identifying objects.
With versatile output interfaces—including PWM, UART, Switch, RS232, and RS485—it offers high adaptability for various systems. The internal temperature compensation function ensures stable ranging from -15°C to +60°C. Designed for low power consumption, it draws <15μA in standby and <10mA during operation (with 5VDC input), while supporting a wide voltage supply range of 3.3-24V. Compliant with IEC61000-4-2 standards, its anti-static design ensures reliability across the -15°C to +60°C operating temperature range.

Notice
(1) When two or more modules are used in the application scenario, it is recommended to use a module with controlled output (high-level pulse width output, UART controlled output), and use a time-sharing work method to prevent mutual communication between modules interference.
(2) In an environment with fast wind speed, the measurement and accuracy of the module will be affected. You can contact our sales to confirm related matters.
(3) Please pay attention to the evaluation of electromagnetic compatibility when designing. Unreasonable system design may cause malfunction of the module.
(4) When it comes to the application of the module limit parameter boundary, you can contact our engineer to confirm the relevant precautions.
